Myopic Leadership

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Talented colleagues and an incredible author base.

Cons

The leadership is myopic and cronyism is rampant. Some of the top leadership are not fit to run a gas station let alone a global, multi-million dollar business.

This company getting worse

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Some good knowledgeable people. Good products and information. Hopefully with new CEO comes up with a better vision.

Cons

Getting rid of smart professionals. Too much upper management infighting. Outsourcing jobs then they tell you how great it is as you see co-workers get laid off. Low pay. Benefits getting worse but more expensive. There a lot of people that speak well but don't say anything of value.

Too many managers, not enough leaders

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

- Great benefits package - Worked with some really great people, but most left for better opportunities.

Cons

- Won't allow remote work unless you're in a leadership position. Get with the program, it's 2015! - Absolutely no room for advancement. Too many people in management roles who never leave (and who should!). - Team members are not empowered to do their work. Everything moves slowly and it takes 5 - 10 people to make a decision. You can't work like that in the digital climate if you want to succeed. - Managers are dictators, not leaders. - Restructure after restructure with no sign of relief. Change in management every 6 months without any say in what team you'll be moved to. Doesn't create a positive work environment. - Way too much favoritism in leadership team, so those who are friends with management, get the job they want and the most "power," and trust me, they wield their power often. - Lots of micro-managing by management. - So many useless meetings during the week. So many. - There are too many people in "leadership and management" positions that the hierarchy of the org chart is completely skewed and imbalanced. Cut some of those upper management roles and bring in some talented people (not fresh out of college) to bring some life back into the company. - Many on the leadership team are really out of touch with the product and/or the consumer.
